    I am a Filipino and living my entire life here in the Philippines but I didn’t know such place, I didn’t realize how big Philippine is until kumander Daot showed it thru his lenses, good job

      Same size in terms of square mileage as my country Norway, but 20 times as much people!

      Because he has enough money to travel around in the Philippines, unlike us that we have first to think if our budget can do such thing. Many of us including me are outdoor lovers, pero uunahin muna natin ang iba pang mga mas mamahalang bagay na pag-gagastusan.

      I've been there twice as a mountaineer hiking in forests more than 20 years ago and I'm sure there's plenty of changes nowadays in that beautiful place.

    So special to see this beautiful, isolated valley before it changes. As you say, with the new road will come great changes, not only for the natural environment, but also for the people. I truly appreciate that you've made it possible for us to see this as it is now! 💯👍
    Aloha at Mabuhay! 🤙

      What's truly sad - KUMANDER - is that you don't see a BUSINESS OPPORTUNITY right in front of you... {VEGETABLES} - "the Prices Are HIGH in the CITY, and Low Here" THE WOMAN told you - all you need to do is set up a "CSA-type" system or just become a VEGETABLE DISTRIBUTOR - buy a van with a COOLER - drive out buy the vegetables at wholesale, and bring them to the city.. I'll bet you'd have half the VAN sold over FACEBOOK and to TH-cam - locals before you'd even get back to the city.

      @@LevAgency those middlemen are incredibly powerful, that's the issue. They have a LOT of control and they are not very nice to those who try to undercut them.
      Otherwise I would love to truck veggies. I've looked at doing it before. It's just... Cut-throat, sometimes.

      Am a 75 year old follower of Zamboanga City. YOU are right, its not proper to do business re; the vegetables because this will give yiu enemies. I AGREE the Middle men dont like it. Anyway you ate happy exploring and still earning from your vlogs. You are friendly and respectful and thats what the natives like. Take care....

I love your narrative style with touch of humor. Very entertaining and educational! Please keep on! Thanks for showing us arround our own backyard!

    This is a great vlog @Kumander Daot.
    National Geographic level presentation 👏👏👏
    I watched this without skipping the ads .. and i watched this twice 😁.
    This area is similar to the Cordillera Region of the Northern Luzon although less mountainous. The mountains are also lower and easier to navigate than those in the Cordillera.
    The Caragan valley is wide and awesome, almost like those in fantasy movies.
    The musical score when you enter the valley ( time 6:30) is dope 👍 .. like the one use in GOT 😁
    Nice one KD!

    • @alfredocasanova4510
      @alfredocasanova4510 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Don't worry Sir, Maragusan is a first class municipality, they are not short of connections anyway. For sure this problem has already been figured out for resolution by the LGU, the mayor knows what is good for the people. I have trust in them, irrespective of political groups, as I haven't heard of any local official in Maragusan involved in corruption eversince. Salamat po.

    If you speak English only, this is by far, the best TH-cam channel today, in the Philippines. These videos are the kind of videos that you will probably save or go back to as a reference to discovering The Philippines, especially Mindanao.

    KD, this is indeed a very rare video which many are waiting for decades. Have stayed in Maragusan many times, but the local people told us very limited facts about Caragan Valley, as it is restricted to some degrees for the mansaka only, aside from being so inaccessible. But now YOU HAVE DONE IT!!! What a documentary achievement, you are the first to do this cover story with matching videos, and you deserve the highest award from the people and the Phil Govt. Salamat gyud kaayo.
